I didn't have one, sorry. I was hoping a master cyl I had out back would have it but no luck. Honestly, this isn't rocket science the universal brass drawers at a good parts store WILL have the components needed to put it together.

The M/C isn't the factory original one, is it?

If it was a simple distribution block you can take a look at the distribution blocks HERE to see if any look like something that you could use.

If it was a hold-off valve (shown below- note the large hex plug covering the valve), it can be replaced w/a distribution block. You may want an adjustable proportioning valve, depending.

I have called Jim carters before and told him what was goin on and that was what he sent me. The bolt was too small and the thready didn't match the brake line. I don't understand why I'm having trouble with this. They sell brake lines and master cylinders, why not sell the part to connect the two

Very similar. The block is suposed to have two ports for front and rear brake lines. The original I had cracked and it got lost.

I have looked everywheres. They have the division blocks for the wheel cylinders and that about it. No one has the part that attaches to the back of the master cylinder.
